Chiappa LA322 Bandit Boot Leg .22lr 12" Non-Restricted

North Sylva just took the time to start another thread and post some more gun #### pictures at their usual pallet location, they also listed a SKU for a butt stock, but as per usual no price and they didn't bother to say which stock it was.... :)
 
This have a 3/8” dovetail for sight mounting on the receiver?
Also, where’s the extraction port?
There is a dovetail rail and if you watch a video on youtube you will see how the action works..... lever action opens the bolt to the rear ejecting spent case (hopefully) out the rights side of the receiver and then closing the lever and bolt pushes a fresh cartridge into the chamber and locks the action closed.
 
While we're waiting for baby brother to show up... here's my LA322 DLX

It's okay, for the few times I had it out, it performed well, never jammed or missed fired.
Quality maybe par with an Rossi, Ithaca or Henry.
It's not a Win 94 or a Mar 39a.
I believe the barrel bands are steel.
 
Got mine today! Jam-o-matic with snap caps. Hopefully runs better with live rounds. Finish on the barrel is kinda crap. For $400 to my door, this looks like it'll be a fun little plinker.
Make sure you fully disassemble and clean and re-oil everything, work some oil into the extractor and shell holder on the bolt. The whole interior lifter box can be removed and cleaned easily as well.
 
Those who have them, please toss up reviews of them.
Cycling and bulging brass are 2 possible issues i have heard. But with anything it could be a 1 off that talks the loudest, meanwhile everyone who is happy never says a word.
 
These are apparently in stock at True North Arms, but priced at over $570.
Marked up so they can mark them down for black friday sale with 25-30% and it drops just a few dollars under what others will charge, but seems like a big discount. They've done it in the past on other items too. Best buy also does things like that.
